Browsing the new library acquisitions, and listed among the articles in the latest The Age of Sail: The International Annual of the Historic Sailing Ship Vol 2. 2003-2004 I found the following:
Title: A passage to Australia - the White Star Line's Red Jacket
Pages: 98-104
Author: Colin Jones
Now I know that this isn't the WSL history many of you are interested in, but I'd be happy to look into it for anyone with a hankering to go into the deep dark roots! |
